Vivo has scheduled a launch event on October 14th for the X200 series. This year’s lineup is expected to include a new compact model, likely named the Vivo X200 Mini. A reliable tipster has now revealed details about the phone’s camera specs.

According to insider Digital Chat Station (DCS), the Vivo X200 Mini might pack a triple-camera setup headlined by a 50-megapixel main camera. 

This primary module reportedly uses a Sony IMX06C sensor with a large 1/1.28-inch size and a wide f/1.57 aperture. It appears to be a new image sensor from Sony as there are little to no details available about it. It could be making its debut with the Vivo X200 series.

Backing it up is a 50-megapixel Samsung JN1 ultra-wide lens for capturing large landscapes or group photos. And we are likely to get a 50-megapixel Sony IMX882 periscope sensor with a 70mm focal length and an f/2.57 aperture for zoom shots. 

DCS suggests the telephoto module should offer up to 10x hybrid zoom and also macro capabilities. 

Aside from this, previous leaks reveal that the X200 Mini will be powered by the Dimensity 9400 chipset, the same as the X200 and X200 Pro. Fueling the device could be a silicon battery with 5500mAh or 5600mAh capacity. Leaks suggest it will also have support for wireless charging. 

On the front, we might see a 6.3-inch display with 1.5K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. 

However, an earlier report suggests that the Vivo X200 Mini may have a few shortcomings compared to its predecessor. Specifically, it might use a short-focus optical fingerprint sensor instead of an ultrasonic one, which may not be as advanced as those found in some competing devices.

Nonetheless, we are expecting it to be a more affordable model in line, so if Vivo prices the device rightly, it shouldn’t be as big of a deal.
